hm - in the light of heavy-weight commits like the .sdf one, ain't this just a micro-optimisation? Unless such stuff gets downloaded automagically, it's a big nuisance in the already-full-of-nuisances ooo build experience. Or invent a nice solution that does auto-downloads, and switch a few other huge external libs to that (like icu). ;) Just my 2c, -- Thorsten
